You don't really mean recursive do you? Recursive would mean remove all
files in all subdirectories as well... Assuming you mean only what the
pseudocode says, you're almos there already...
<cfset mypath = expandpath("my/directory/path") />
<cfdirectory action="list" name="rsfile" directory="#mypath#" />
<cfloop query="rsfile">
<cfif rsfile.type is "file">
<cffile action="delete" file="#mypath#/#rsfile.name#" />
</cfif>
</cfloop>
